Chemical Structure,Biological Activities of Phytoestrogens and Their Application in Functional Foods

Abstract

Abstract: Phytoestrogens,such as isoflavones,lignans and coumestrols were natural bioactive constituents of soybean,sesame,rice,fruits and vegetables and exhibited vital biological functions for human health.These compounds have received increasing attention because of their interesting biological properties and pharmacological role in prevention of human cancer and other diseases.The present study reviewed the newdevelopments on analysis method,relationships between structure and function as well as prevention of diseases,especially cancer and coronary heart diseases.The author also suggested the development prospect of functional foods by using phytoestrogens as biofactor.

Key words: Phytoestrogen , Isoflavoids , Lignans , Biological activities , Functional food
